Publisher's Synopsis
THE COLLECTED DOUG WRIGHT: CANADAÆS MASTER CARTOONIST introduced the world to the charms of CanadaÆs mischievous little kid, Nipper, who appeared in newspapers across the country in the mid 20th century. NIPPER 1963-64 is the first in a series of paperback annuals that will collect two years worth of Doug WrightÆs ingenious and enduring comic strip. This volume covers a peak period in WrightÆs four-decade career as he comes into his own as an iconic cartoonist capable of documenting middle-class suburban existence in all its minute joys and indignities. Packed with period details and loaded with charm, these collections of sublime wordless strips will feature designs by acclaimed cartoonist Seth and a brief introduction by journalist Brad Mackay.
